Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best rating for the best doctor!
It cannot be overstated how awesome Dr. Crabtree-Wilson is. She has operated on my husband 3 separate times with outstanding results. I trust her absolutely.

She is the BEST!
Dr Crabtree is one of the most passionate, caring doctors I know. She listens to what I have to say and explains everything so that I understand clearly. Her bedside manner is unmatched. Dr Crabtree has performed 3 operations on my spine in the last 7 years and each time has been such a blessing. I promise she is the best out there!!

The best in Neurology!
Dr. Crabtree-Wilson has been fantastic from day 1! I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor. From the first emergency surgery she performed on me, I knew she was there to help in anyway she could. She saved my life and allowed me to have more time with the ones I love. I was very sad when she left Stormont Vail assuming she’d be too far for me to be able to see. After some digging online, I found she had gone to Lawrence Memorial Hospital which is only a 30 minute drive. Her new team is incredible and I’m so very grateful they were able to get me in quickly and get a plan in place for my concerns.

Expert in Neurology Conditions and Surgery
Dr. Crabtree-Wilson has been my neurology specialist for the past three years. She combines her expertise with her willingness to listen and then takes appropriate action for the treatment of the patient's symptoms. With each follow-up appointment she has already reviewed my file and is ready to discuss and explain test results or new information. She is an excellent surgeon which I can attest to after recently having a brain tumor removed. She and her staff made sure I had a smooth prep, surgery and follow-up. Dr. Crabtree is truly exceptional. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and outstanding neurologist.

Great Doctor
This lady went above and beyond to help me with my neck problem. She has a great bedside manner, she answered all the questions of myself and my family. When we had a appointment we were taken in on time, and was treated with respect and treated very well by everyone in her office. I would recommend Dr Kellie to anyone who needs her services.

I would give Dr. Crabtree a ten if I could. After many years of back pain that became increasingly harder to control and was affecting the quality of my life Dr. Crabtree preformed surgery on my back. It has changed. my life. I am able to walk further than I have been in years and my pain has been decreased to almost nothing. It has been life changing. Her personal attention has been invaluable and her kindness and empathy heartwarming. Her staff and office people have been ever so helpful. I can’t imagine having a better experience and better outcome than this.

I would rate Dr. Crabtree 10/10 both in surgical knowledge and personal attributes. Her people skills and caring level are excellent. I could not have asked for a better surgeon to oversee my extensive lumbar fusion.

June 2017 I herniated several disks. Next morning I met Dr. Crabtree, she explained I needed surgery. I was horrified being unable to research surgeons before allowing one to cut on me. I spoke with several nurses, all told me she would be their top pick if any of their family needed surgery. I am so thankful to Dr. Crabtree for being there, thank you for your dedication and sacrifice to become such a talented surgeon. Prefer not to do it again but she would be the surgeon if I had to.

Dr. Crabtree did emergency surgery on my 87 year-old mother after she fell last summer. The odds were very much against her living let alone ever having a normal life again. Dr. Crabtree made our whole family believe in miracles. My mother has made an incredible recovery and even got her driver's license back several weeks ago (she has always been a good driver). Her life is back to normal and we will forever be grateful to Dr. Crabtree.

I could not have had a better surgeon than Dr. Crabtree-Wilson. She is very competent, caring, and takes the time to ensure she is being clearly understood. I consider my surgery (three vertebrae fused) to be a great success, as I am now pain-free for the first time in months. She is relatively young, early 30s, but one should not let that be a factor. I would not hesitate to go to her again.
